Yeah, its probably the same here because you can have a land plot without a house but with a postbox and address anyway.  It is a compromise to put it on the buildings where they exist because land plots is out of scope.

What I mean is that its a bad idea to keep the exact same data in multiple places and thinking about it postal addresses follows land plots and legal boundaries and not POIs.
